Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

No one could have predicted…

Accountability, motherfuckers.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

We still have time to mess this up!

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

    And end up sprouting from some pod into alien bliss, like in the movies. Fuck that, never fall asleep, or hand the wheel over to a troll. My grandpappy used to say that playing cards, to temporarily flummox us before hollering RUMMY!

    @Yutsano:

    The formatting of this entire site is a bit funky. If they are going for the “Just install random wordpress theme with defaults and call it a day” look then mission accomplished.

    I see there is no right hand column but there is comment from Tom Levenson about his bleg yesterday. Could that have sent the format off the rails? When I clicked on the contained reference to yesterday’s post from Tom, the format for that post was okay (in three columns).

    I’m guessing the video was set up wrong..it’s all Tom’s fault, no doubt.

    The formatting is broken only for this post — the preceding open thread and the next one, Comrade DougJ’s post on K-Thug’s Monday column, are fine.

    O Tom Levenson! What hast thou done?

    ETA: And now it’s fixed.

    What have I done? What has Anne Laurie undone?

    all seems well from where I sit, full of home-made fried chicken.

    @Fred:
    Nope, the cat head butts the dolphin several times. Cats never head butt their lunch – that is reserved for objects of affection. The reaching out with the paw is clearly, “Hey, come back.” What’s interesting is that the dolphin seems to be very much “into” the cat, as well.

    Dolphins have been declared the world’s second most intelligent creatures after humans, with scientists suggesting they are so bright that they should be treated as “non-human persons”.

    Studies into dolphin behaviour have highlighted how similar their communications are to those of humans and that they are brighter than chimpanzees. These have been backed up by anatomical research showing that dolphin brains have many key features associated with high intelligence.

    Seriously, see my subsequent comment on broken rendering of block quotes. The two paragraphs above and the URL in the HTML code are clearly wrapped with correct opening and closing blockquote tags. But the first paragraph only is split into proper display as a blockquote. Why can’t this be fixed?

    Well, that is just great. Using blockquotes on this web site is STILL BROKEN. Why? Two paragraphs, wrapped with appropriate open and close blockquote tags, using the options on the comment editor. And it displays with the first paragraph broken off. Seriously. How the heck do you do blockquotes when correct syntax is simply ignored when rendered??
